The Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food and Environment (VKM) has assessed an application for approval of the genetically modified sugar beet KWS20-1. The scope of the application is for food produced from genetically modified sugar beet KWS20-1 or containing ingredients produced from sugar beet KWS20-1, and feed produced from sugar beet KWS20-1 for import and processing submitted within the framework of Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003. The application does not include cultivation or import of viable material.

The Joint Nature Conservation Committee (UK) launched the Air Pollution Recovery Indicators Programme (APRI) in 2023. Royal Botanic Gardens Kew’s APRI experimental work focuses on heathland recovery where nitrogen (N) pollution has significantly impacted ecosystem services, including carbon sequestration and biodiversity. Despite the important ecosystem services they provide, little is known about how heathlands might recover from N pollution, especially below ground. We are investigating the potential of ericoid mycorrhizal (ErM) fungi, in both soil and roots, as novel indicators of recovery from N pollution in southern England, and comparing these results to soil and heather roots sourced in less polluted Norway heathlands. ErM fungi form symbiotic associations with heather roots and liverwort rhizoids, mining organic N and phosphorus from nutrient-poor heathland soils; in exchange, the plants supply carbon to the fungi. As such there is an expectation that ErM fungi will respond rapidly to changes in N pollution. Our field experiments are also assessing changes in lichen community composition and evaluating the practicality of using LiDAR, RGB and multispectral drone technology to measure and link biomass changes above ground to N fertilization. We have the following research questions regarding above and below ground heathland condition: How are ErM and soil fungal communities impacted by, and how do they recover from, N pollution? How do changes in above ground vegetation (plants, lichens) link with ErM and soil fungal communities? What are the ErM and non-mycorrhizal fungal communities across a N pollution gradient, in southern England and coastal Norway?
